Not wanting to hijack this (interesting) thread, but .. I have to concur with Rick P - that's rather a odd requirement when each FreeBSD install since at least 2.2 has come with root and toor (in that order) in /etc/passwd. I don't use toor, but often enough read about folks who do, and don't recall it ever being an issue with NFSv3. Are you sure this is a problem that cannot be coded around in NFSv4? cheers, Ian _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
